Naked Walking

24 x 45 minutes slow walking 5th serie
Various locations, starting March 08

The walking tempo (max.1m./min.) is in slow motion and in this project, the participants are naked. The preferred location is an empty room or in the nature. This meditative project is always assigned to Sundays.

A. Two persons move towards one other in slow motion and come to a standstill facing each other.

B .A grouping of slow moving naked persons and the choreography which evolves out of this.

Undressing is a part of the performance. Clothes are deposited on the ground. Walking is in an upright positure and as far as possbile in a continuous forward motion without pausing. Wide angle, „panorama" vision. Participants slowly return to their clothes put them on, wait until the last person has finished dressing, then leave the room.

All 45 minute naked walking events will take place on a Sunday with a starting-time shift of 1hr per event: 01.15am., 02.15h am., 03.15am., and so on until 22 15pm., 23 15pm., 00 15am.

The overall concept covers 7 series, dedicated to the weekdays (since 2000).
